Hello. I have a 91 GSX-1100-G. The valve stem on the rear wheel recently developed a leak. I tried to replace it with the wheel still attached, but ended up dropping the new valve stem inside the tire. What does it take to remove the wheel? What size sockets will I need? Thanks!
Don't the manual say something about tying a piece of cotton round the valve ? In case it falls into the tyre as in this case ??

Of course a wideband O2 sensor. Thanks to @Gixer1460for pointing out my several rookie mistakes.
@Captn@Gixer1460read through this, where can I get a wideband O2 sensor and gauge from ? Looking at going this route for my own bike, to see what it tells me about the state of my own bike.

Not those, a beefier version of the one further up.....local blacksmith made them for gsxr motors....one was knocked off shelf and broke my mates arm.....oops.
@Gsxrsamso have you tried the Newvu stands, the adjustable ones ? Or just the box section welded ones ?

I have some heavy duty versions.
@GsxrsamA heavy duty version of the Newvu stand ? The blue one ? Do they fit the GSXR1100 engine ? How sturdy are they ? cheers

Anybody out there tried these engine stands ? https://www.newvu.co.uk/classic-bike-parts

If it's turning slow and the leads are getting warm and its a DOT head i'd suspect compression maybe a culprit ! Assume you are using decent size jump cables - not those pissy 'hardly fit for purpose' 10mm cables - ideally min. 25mm sq welding type cables for least resistance!
I may be looking at this a bit simplistically but...……. if its a compression problem then take the spark plugs out and see how it spins over then ?? If it spins freely then it points towards a compression problem ?

@SiBagyes got it now. I really am shite with this technology stuff !

@Bowthanks, that's the info I needed. But photo is a little blurry
can you please confirm the hole diameter ? And do you know what size of box section the frame work is ? I'm guessing 25mm ? thanks again.

There is. I have a few! But ... they're on another 'puter, and I won't be able to get at it for a week at least. Someone else may well have what you're looking for.
@Swiss Tonihi bud, I've tried searching for an old post on here for any details on the engine stand dimensions but it brings up 83 posts ! Looked through quite a few but no success. If you can find the other dimensions it would be appreciated. No rush. thanks

Not mine. Someone posted this up a while ago!
@Swiss Tonithanks. that's a great help. is there another view showing the heights of the four 'legs' and hole positions ? cheers

I need to get my engine out of the frame and on to the bench for some maintenance and a stand would be handy. Does anyone have a drawing of how to fabricate one ? cheers

@jonny1bumpnot sure why it didn't work first time?

@jonny1bump yeah they have landed and look real good. On another note, how are you getting on with stripping the gsxr1100/1000 yokes off your bike ? cheers bud.

Initial pricing I have is roughly 25 a set but this is 4 off will reduce more peeps that won't them to cover set up cost.

Like i said there are loads of 54mm k series yokes that are the same, have a another look at the chart.. also dont forget the top hat spacer for the top yoke to take up the diferance in stem diameters..
Had a look at the chart again and went for a GSXR600K1 yoke as per the list but its wrong, I think. Early GSXR600K series have RWU forks ?

Looks like GSXR600 early K series are about the cheapest.

Hi, gonna be using a 1000K1 wheel, forks, and brakes. And swapping the 1100 steering stem into the 1000 bottom yoke.
-
Yeah, I can see that now. And I thought Suzuki stuff was supposed to be interchangeable !! Looks like I still need a set of straight GSXR1000 K1 yokes.

Hi, now that I've been told that TL forks are RWU I've binned the idea of using a TL yoke. Basically I'm trying to fit a GSXR1000 K1 front end on to my Harris which has a GSXR1100L front on it now. Really wanted Ohlins but they are getting fookin expensive now ! The 1000's are shorter so I've got some top extenders made but the GSXR1000 bottom yoke I bought is bent !
